It was never that refried crap. The corn dogs were pale white and drippy with batter right before my eyes.... and then they were deep fried until crispy golden brown. Garnish it with ketchup and it's the pure best fucking shit you can have on a stick.

I never see any of those here. All I see are pre-cooked frozen ones in supermarkets AND even in carnivals or fairs, they're pre-cooked.

WTF!!!!! It's like the WORLD of difference to have a fresh one...

I get one at the fair every year here. They are dipped and cooked right there on the spot. FRESH! :)

Also, try a polish sausage corndog!

Any idea which booth it was that had them? Assuming it is one of the regulars, I want to try one this year. Last year was the first year I really indulged in fair food.

Lol, I remember asking for a pogo at Disneyland, they were like wtf?? Don't ask for vineger, you'll get the same look.

Besides corn dogs/pogos aren't healthy, this would be better. If they put cheese and gravy on it it might actually be good! Hmmm....Pogotine!

It's the booth that serves the blocks of frys, onion rings, or zuccini sticks. They have corndogs or polish dogs for like $3.50.

Ketchup? WTF is wrong with you?! TPAD. The only thing that goes on a corn dog is mustard.

I don't think I've ever been to a mall without a Hot Dog On A Stick. They make them right in front of you.

you GTFO

mustard if the ONLY acceptable garnish for a corn dog

if you can sit like a chick, then the corn dog battle is important; fight the brave fight, francis... I like only mustand sometimes, and then ketchup, and the both. However, I will never tell some how they should eat there corndog.
